    Nurk gets absolutely cooked against Davis. He said not the key at all. Aminu did better on Davis than nurk did.

    In true Blazer fashion, the Brass will somehow justify NOT making wholesale changes over the offseason.

    Yes your misery in pergatory will continue - All the whilst Stotts, Lillard and Olshey will tout continuity of roster and 'Good Guys'.

    I wish I could quit this tease of a franchise. The Moda Center is a factory of sadness.

    See you all Thursday.

    I've seen 4th q only. Couldn't believe how chaotic our offence was.

    How are we in purgatory? We improved from 41 wins to 49 wins and this series isn't over yet.

    As a business model, the playoffs are small potatoes: up to 16 more home games, messing with the lucrative summer arena schedule, when you got 41 sold out games every year rain or shine? Donald Sterling had the right idea other than the "i'm a modern day slave owner boop de boo!" part.

    I can come up with a couple of fake IDs for the kids if you want to bring them.

    Olshey is fucking crazy if he isn't willing to go to drastic measures at this point. The "let it bake" scenario is an complete and utter failure.

    He kinda did in both games. He can’t guard him. Why do you think stotts put aminu on him?

    Hey man don’t worry just build through the draft around dame and cj and their prime will come and go but it’s okay because we have a good culture and the team takes trips to San Diego in the offseason all on their own, wow aren’t they great?!?! Lol
